the purpose of the present study is to examine the effects of ego depletion on arousal of elite iranian swimmers. the sample comprised elite swimmers invited to the national swimming team as focused and semi focused (36 subjects). the research design was as pre- and post-test—in two phases of ego depletion conditions and the lack of ego depletion conditions in two experimental and control group...

The paper first discusses early work that predated internet art and that was concerned with active audience participation in electronic art and describes the path of development of the first author’s artworks that have looked at human to human communication through electronic (computer) systems from 1970 until today. The fundamental concept has been to make artworks that explore human communica...

Although a robust literature has demonstrated a positive relationship between education and socio-economic attainment, the processes through which formal schooling yields enhanced economic and social rewards remain less clear. Employers play a crucial role in explaining the returns to formal schooling yet little is known about how employers, particularly elite employers, use and interpret educa...

Despite the variation in swimming performance of elite triathletes is generally small, longitudinal observations of swimming performance in the top 20 elite triathletes in the world compared to that of the remaining field indicate that swimming performance is crucial at Olympic distance triathlon at elite level (Bentley et al., 2008). Therefore, researches that addresses optimization of swim pe...

An odd prime number p is called anti-elite if only finitely many Fermat numbers are quadratic non-residues to p. This concept is the exact opposite to that of elite prime numbers. We study some fundamental properties of anti-elites and show that there are infinitely many of them. A computational search among all the numbers up to 100 billion yielded 84 anti-elite primes.

more fundamental question: what is the rationale for treating elite suppressors with cART in the first place? We know that many of these patients are probably infected with fully replication-competent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–1 isolates [2, 3]. Furthermore, a comparison of proviral and plasma HIV clones suggests that viral evolution has occurred in these patients, meaning that the vir...
